Hi People.
I'm a slow tester-taker with a short and undiagnosed attention span issue. I either go too fast because my attention span is too short or I go too slow because I lose my concentration and have to read a question twice.
I find myself reading lots of the UWorld questions twice.
I know, it's a no-no on test day.
A fair chunk of people have posted (in the 2009 experiences thread) that they were caught off-guard by the timing of the exam and finished with seconds left to spare.
Should I buy diapers now or suffer anxiety and incontinence after the exam?
Seriously, anyone who took the exam, preferibly slow test-takers, was timing an issue because you're slow or because it was the "real thing?"
PS: My concentration issues also make it such that I am constantly looking at the damn timer. I usually try to do UWorld such that I complete 12 questions every 15 minutes and gain some time toward the 3rd quarter of the set. Chime in people.
